So did 3 VPS calibrations, one IMU calibration and one stick calibration. Went for a test flight today. Excellent weather, sunlight, midday. VPS should be thriving.
Hovers 50 meters above ground (height registers correctly), bird tells me I have 0,0-0,5 to maybe 1-2 meters (ground) clearance - and the value flickers, as if the sensors are all jittery. Appropriately, whenever I tried to descend, the craft would start autolanding, because naturally, it believes it is just above ground.
So to bring it down, I disabled VPS and precision landing. It now flies ok. Sure, it has no clue of what ground clearance it has, but I can compensate by piloting more aware etc.
So Ive concluded that currently, the VPS is just a hazard, it serves no purpose and makes it impossible to bring the craft down.
What to do? Wait for a software update or RMA? Or just ignore the VPS as some failed experimental sensor and fly on without it? |
